By Warren Carter

Author Warren Carter addresses the ways that New testomony writings current God
by asking 4 questions on how God pertains to others: How is God
presented on the subject of Israel? How is God provided in relation to
Jesus and the Spirit? How is God offered in relation to
believers/disciples/the church? How is God offered when it comes to “the
world”? Carter makes use of those inquiries to aid draw out the main important
factors in all of the New testomony writings discussed.

"Rarely
does one exclaim, “This is a true page-turner!” whilst describing a book
on the hot Testament—but i have to say it. together with his characteristic
concision and readability, let alone wit and conversational style,
Carter leads us on a journey of “God-at-Work” in fifteen closely-read
texts. What claims do some of the texts make approximately God? What questions
or “red flags” do those texts elevate? What impression do or may still these
texts have upon us as readers today?

Carter intrepidly takes up some
of the tougher and cryptic NT texts and asks aloud lots of the
uncomfortable questions we’ve questioned approximately yet would possibly not have voiced
so pointedly. He doesn't offer tidy solutions, yet his technique entices
us to not hand over, yet quite to dive even deeper into the texts, their
world, and ours. In analyzing this ebook, i used to be variously educated,
entertained, challenged, or even moved." -Jaime Clark-Soles
